daughter+ssei+cement post=guess!
Well my daughter came home from work today and seemed a little out of character. She came home and was really nice to me and sat down with us and watched some TV with me and overall was very sociable with Lisa and I. Well Lisa was the first to ask....Ashley what'* up........with a response from Ashley came........Ah Dad it'* the car........ to which I said what did you do???? Did you hit anyone, kill anyone.....to which she said no I just hit a cement wall in the parking garage at work.......well I just sighed and thought oh well, just another project to do on the old bonnie now.
Here is my next project......replace and re-paint right rear door:
Nothing a little paint and elbow grease won't cure!

Oh Brian sorry to hear, at least no one got hurt and your daughter is ok. I guess your options are.
1. leave it as is
2. Have a body shop do the repairs
3. Get a door from the scrap yard, hopefully the same colour and re & re.
4. Purchase just the door skin, if they're still available the re & re the skin and repaint.
5. Try to suck out the old dent then use body filler to fill in the rest to smothen it out.
6. Purchase a new car
Just a thought.

Open Door
Remove Door trim panel.
Unplug and remove ALL wiring from the interior of the door shell.
Remove 4 nuts holding door on car ( have a helper remove nutz or hold door)
Throw out door.
Reverse directions to reassemble....
I've done this a few times LOL
Good luck with the door brian

i'll swing by the yard tomorrow and let you know what'* available here.
I'd almost leave it until she gets older. give you time to find a new door, and give her time to realize what she'* done
